Before performing this process, we will have to remove from the memory of up to 64 GB that our Moto G6 includes all the photos and files that we do not want to be able to. Then we turn off the terminal to press volume down and the power button at the same time until we see an advanced menu on the screen. Through the volume buttons we scroll and with the power button we enter the option.

From this mode we place ourselves on the Recovery option and enter, now we place ourselves on “Wipe data / factory reset” and press again, to finally choose “Userdata only”. All the data of the terminal will be erased and when it is switched on we can use it again as the first day, hoping that the colors have returned to normal.
